Shroud

Asher was a summer intern at SecuriTech. The R&D department to which he was assigned was secretly supplying advanced technology to the highest bidder. He was part of an experiment to create a neural interface which enabled operation of an experimental combat and infiltration suit that incorporated alien technology recovered from the crash of the Steel Swarm sphere.
The experiment was a near total failure – of 10 subjects only he was able to operate the suit, but it permanently bonded to him making replication at scale impossible. With the help of a friend, he broke into the lab facility and stole the suit.
Asher cares about working with his new superpowered friends because every day with them is exciting. It’s also a chance to thwart others who want to mass produce supersoldiers or otherwise turn technology to evil ends.
